Eddie Robinson, who proudly did the dirty work in the shadows of the stars during his 11-year career, has exited into retirement quietly.

Robinson had already started working as a coach with the Dynamo Academy two weeks ago, and the club finally announced his retirement in a brief press release today.

"I don't want a lot of attention, to be honest, just want to get on with things," he said via text before the official announcement.

Now that Robinson is retired and the Montreal Impact hold Dynamo icon Brian Ching's rights after the club declined to protect him in the expansion draft last November, Brad Davis is the last remaining member of the original 2006 squad that moved from San Jose.
